session-memory-store

A session store implementation for Express using node-cache.

Because the default store for express-session -- memory-cache will lead to a memory leak due to it havn't a suitable way to make them expire.

And this is why I make this project, for those who want to use in-memory session, also want them to auto expire.

WANING

The session is still storing in memory, you can't share the session with others process or other service.

It's highly not recommend to use it in production!

USAGE

var express = require('express'),
  session = require('express-session'),
  cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');

// for express 4.0+
var MemoryStore = require('session-memory-store')(session);

// for express 4.0-
// var MemoryStore = require('session-memory-store')(express);

var app = module.exports = express();

app.use(cookieParser());

app.use(session({
  name: 'JSESSION',
  secret: 'my secret',
  store: new MemoryStore(options)
}));
